Wild Thymes Cranberry Sauce & Chutney

Dress Up Everyday Meals With Fruity Accents

Overview

There are few low-calorie ways to dress up foods, and fewer still that are versatile and delicious. Wild Thymes makes a variety of all-natural cranberry sauces and fruit chutneys that will transform a bland meal into an outstanding one without adding much in the way of calories, fat or carbohydrates.

Wild Thymes Cranberry Sauces and Fruit Chutneys add such big flavor and character to dishes, we were surprised (and delighted!) that they range from just 15 to 25 calories per tablespoon, have zero grams of fat and contribute less than 2% of the daily value of carbohydrates. Those needing to control their calorie, sugar and carb intake no longer have reason to complain about bland, boring food. One night when we were ready to reach for ice cream, we had 6 tablespoons of Mango Papaya Chutney instead: with a hint of jalapeño, it was 90 calories of spicy, fruity fat-free heaven.

Wild Thymes Cranberry Sauces are free of fat, gluten and cholesterol. For dieters and those with sugar restrictions, they are a welcome alternative to the sugar-laden cranberry sauces that adorn the holiday table—and they come in more interesting flavors: Cranberry Fig, Original Cranberry With Oranges And Lemons, Cranberry Raspberry and Cranberry Apple Walnut.

Serving Suggestions

Their consistency is much thinner than traditional cranberry sauces and relishes, making them easy to spread on those turkey sandwiches we end up eating in the days following Thanksgiving; as well as versatility beyond a side dish for Big Tom. Here are some other ways we used these interesting sauces—and will use them throughout the year:

Spoon Cranberry Fig Sauce over vanilla ice cream.

Fill puff pastry with brie and a tablespoon of Cranberry Raspberry Sauce or Cranberry Apple Walnut Sauce, and bake until golden.

Use any Wild Thymes cranberry sauce as a low-calorie topping for cheesecakes, warm brioche or scones; or with chocolate, vanilla, or berry ice cream.

Wild Thymes Chutneys offer even more opportunities to “play with your food.” Colorful and delicious, they add zesty flavors. Each flavor is fruity with savory accents, and can be worked into breakfast, lunch and dinner dishes.

Make an ordinary grilled cheese sandwich special by spreading Plum Currant Ginger Chutney on the cheese before grilling.
